Baseline is an open-source project that is actively seeking contributions from any willing participants. Here are some guidelines for people that would like to contribute to the project.
If you are new to the baseline project and are looking for an entry-point to make your first contribution, look here. That link shows all of the tagged good first issues, which are meant to be small pieces of work that a first-time contributor can pick-up and complete. If you find one that you'd like to work on, please assign yourself or comment on the issue and one of the maintainers can assign it for you.
If you want to create a new issue that doesn't exist already, follow the guidelines in one of our Issue Templates.
Follow these steps when submitting a pull request:
- Fork this repo into your GitHub account. Read more about forking a repo on Github here.
- Create a new branch, based on the
masterbranch, with a name that concisely describes what you’re working on (ex.add-mysql). - Ensure that your changes do not cause any existing tests to fail.
- Submit a pull request against the
masterbranch.
Anyone can do a pull request and commit. In order for your work to be merged, you will need to sign the eCLA (entity contributor agreement) if you are contributing on behalf of your company, or iCLA (individual contributor agreement) if you are just contributing for yourself. Learn more about the eCLA here.
The iCLA is administered by a bot which will comment on your PR and direct you to sign the iCLA if you haven’t previously done so. This happens automatically when people submit a pull request, or they can access directly by going to https://cla-assistant.io/ethereum-oasis/baseline
